Roughly ten minutes into it right now, but the updated forecast in a nutshell is that rapid intensification is underway, and that the model guidance has changed very little over the past day. Basically still a Port Charlotte-Key West storm, according to MWatkins.

EDIT> okay...just finished it and nice job (as always). The key point the guys made here, IMO, is that there will be an atmospheric sampling tonight over the region, which will add new data for the models to decipher/interpret.

How did you get the FSU Superensemble, Mike? Do you know what intensity it's forecasting?

Nice video.
